False breakouts always come very frequently, and each time you think this time it's really the one. But what happens? You're repeatedly proven wrong, and your account gets worn down little by little.
Losing a bit of money the first time, gritting your teeth; losing a bit more the second time, your mindset begins to waver; the third, fourth times... As this accumulates, your psychological defense line completely collapses. In the end, even when a genuine breakout is right in front of you, you can't recognize it—your mind is filled with the fear of "The wolf is coming again."
There are clearly opportunities right there, but you just don't dare to act. That's the cost of being worn down and scared.
Instead of being repeatedly taught by the market, it's better to learn patience first. Holding onto opportunities is much more reliable than chasing the market.

It's so realistic. Every time I think this time is different, but I still get caught in the same trap.
Getting slapped in the face over and over really messes with your mindset.
So now I just lie back. Anyway, when a real breakthrough comes, I probably won't recognize it.
Rather than chasing the market trends, it's better to wait for the trend to come to me. That's how it is.

It's so damn real. That's how I got worn out.
Fake breakouts again and again, cutting losses repeatedly. Now that the real opportunity has come, I feel numb.
This must be the gambler's mentality, where eventually you don't even believe in yourself anymore.

Too realistic. After being cut, everything looks like a trap. Instead of catching genuine breakthroughs, I end up holding onto false signals.

Damn, this is my blood and tears story.
After losing three times in a row, I really lost the courage. Now I have to calm my mind before looking at the K-line.
Repeated fake breakouts have messed with people. Now that a real opportunity has come, I'm actually scared.
